Episode 7: Still Purple

Beyond the Star, produced by HYBE Media Studio

"Every single one of our performances was significant to us, they are all precious memories." – Jimin

The song Butterfly starts and I know this episode is going to be hard to watch because I'm already tearing up.

This is a long post. Apologies. There's a lot to say about it.

They are talking about what concert memories mean the most to them:

Hobi says it was their first stadium concert at the Rose Bowl which was the most significant memory for him as far as which concert was the most memorable.

Jungkook says it was Chicago when it was the first time they'd ever performed in the rain:

Jin says it's when they perform IDOL that is his favorite concert memory.

Jimin says even though fans would see what he's talking about through photos but in real life, what they see from the stage is so beautiful, words can't do justice to describe it:

They reminisce about their concert at the Olympic Gymnastic Arena and recalling the emotions they felt then, that they had reached the top in 2016 are a very precious memory to them

Concerts are what they were made to do. Their type of performance, the big choreography, the big songs... big performances... belong on the live concert stage.

And now we're at the series of concerts that were to be their last before they really embark on Chapter 2: PTD Las Vegas.

BigHit/Hybe pulled out the stops for this one. The city of Las Vegas was all in and being the party city it is, it was one of the most fun and extravagant things I've ever witnessed.

I 1000% regret not going. I didn't know it was going to be the last chance for a long time.

They get to do things like attend a few concerts and visit the Bellagio Fountain when the fountains of water are set to the rhythm of Dynamite and Butter. I know Hobi has a video of Jungkook and Tae vibing to Dynamite at the Bellagio Fountain on his camera roll! Show it to us Hobi!!

Jimin, Yoongi and Namjoon went to the Silk Sonic concert.

I think it's curious that they do not mention the 2022 Grammy performance or event at all. When they left Seoul for this trip on March 28, 2022, Hobi was not with them because he had tested positive for covid prior to departure. Jungkook wasn't with them because he'd left the day before for the purpose of a work schedule but I don't remember what it was, and upon landing in the U.S. he tested positive for covid and had to quarantine until he had a negative test.

They were to perform at the Grammy Awards show on April 3, 2022. They were missing two members up until the day before the performance. Thankfully Hobi tested negative in time to catch a plane to Las Vegas:

Jungkook tested negative the day before the performance and was able to practice ONCE with the group. Here he is doing a Vlive while quarantining in his hotel room:

And after all that, they gave a performance of a lifetime during the Grammy Awards:

Anyway... I digress... just curious they make no mention of it at all...

Jungkook brought his boxing coach (Coach Tommy) and this might be the workout he was doing prior to joining Hobi, Tae and Jimin for that Vlive following one of their concerts.

Jungkook says the only thing he regrets about the previous 10 years was that it took him a while to realize certain things and then put them into practice.

Namjoon wonders what it would've been like had they ended things after ON and Yoongi reflects that they would've taken a break from November 2020, if the pandemic had not happened and they would've been on a break for about two and half years (for enlistment). They didn't expect the pandemic to go on for so long (none of us did).

Namjoon wonders if he stayed true to the lyrics he wrote in ON while living his life. He thought they were running straight ahead all this time but as it turns out, they had gone in a circle and were back at the starting line. He contemplates what to do to run forward again.

The last PTD Las Vegas concert is bittersweet for all of us. So much has happened to culminate with this.

Tae says it's time for them to organize their thoughts so they can come back with a better image and performance and they aren't saying they are done, they are saying they've worked hard and now they need the time to grow.

And then we see Jimin in the car, on the way home after their last PTD Seoul concert on March 13, 2020. He is on the phone inviting someone over. Guess who?

It looks like he's taken a shower. He shows us a pot of fish cake soup his dad made for him. Jimin prepares three place settings, fetches 3 bottles of soju, and pardon me but the fact Jimin has a can of spray cheez in his auxiliary kitchen changes everything for me.

Why is he consuming that and why does he store it above the kitchen sink in is extra kitchen? Why do these expensive apartments have two kitchens? Jimin barely needs one kitchen but he has two...

Anyway, Jungkook arrives and they proceed to eat and drink.

While they are having a conversation about what time they go to bed and wake up, Jimin says he might sleep until 4 pm and then this ensues:

When Jungkook makes the remark that he sounds like Yoongi, off-camera, you can hear someone stifling their wheezing laugh. Staff camera man is in on the joke and the documentary editors are too as they cut briefly to Yoongi eating take out chicken.

The editors were wrong for that! HAHAHAHAH!

Then Tae and Namjoon talk about and show us their living spaces and how they feel living on their own.

Namjoon is very particular about his space and he says its very precious to him. He says the way one curates their living space speaks a lot about their personality and taste. I agree 100%. He says he wants to show us his space so we can know what kind of person he is.

Tae says he decorated his own space, commissioning art pieces for it. He has an extensive collection of vinyl records and puts on a yellow vinyl disc that appears to be Betty Wright, a recording of a live performance. He says boredom can be a given when living alone and he says he looks for Small but Definite Happiness in his daily life. SDH. We should all strive to do that.

Then we're back at Jimin's and Jungkook is cooking more food, chopping vegetables. FYI, that Miele induction cooktop is about $3,500.

Watching Jimin retell the story of when one of his friends pointed out that he seemed depressed, was not himself, was one of the most revealing things we've ever heard from Jimin.

And now he feels he's in a very healthy place. I'm gonna elaborate on this in another blog post when I'm done with this series.

All in all, the members had to learn to live alone after living together for 8 years or more for some of them.

Yoongi reflects on running so hard in their 20s. He wonders if they shouldn't have enjoyed themselves more and not let the pressures become overwhelming. Regardless, now that he's reached 30, all those worries and thoughts have disappeared and he feels liberated.

I've realized some of these interviews for these episodes were conducted on the day they traveled from Seoul to Las Vegas because they are wearing the same clothing.

Episode 8 coming soon... and more.

corroded coffin got nominated for a grammy. eddie wants steve to be there, but it's in la and steve hasn't ever left hawkins. eddie decides to tell him, and assure him that it's okay, and that eddie doesn't have to be there, but steve protests. steve suggests that the kids come along, that way, when they leave hawkins, he won't have anything to worry about. the first kid they go to is max. eddie explains the situation, and max says no at first, until steve tells her that kate bush will be there too. next, they go to will and el. will says yes without hesitation. two checked off.

el, however has a lot of questions. "what is a grammy?" "how do we get there?" "why?" eventually, she agrees. steve tells lucas, and he agrees, as long as max goes. mike agrees to go, as long as will goes. steve sits dustin down, and has a long, off topic conversation with him, until eddie finally just asks. he agrees. the week before, eddie took each of the kids to his fashion designer to have them fitted for their outfits. the night before, steve triple checked that the tickets for their flight were purchased.

everyone slept over at steve and eddie's house, so it would be simple for them to get to the airport on time. this was not the case. yes, steve walked through the house, yelling for everyone to get up, and keep in mind, this was 4 in the morning. everyone was on edge, arguing, pushing past one another. around 6am, they finally got all of their suitcases packed into the car. everyone got in, and steve started speeding to the airport, claiming that if they missed their flight, he was going to be pissed.

turns out, they arrive with an hour to spare. steve and eddie sit down and drink some coffee, while the rest of the kids bicker. when they're called to board, the all get on, and the flight is mostly silent, except for the crying babies and max and lucas arguing about something. their plane lands, and cc gets escorted to a car, trying to lay low and avoid the paparazzi. steve and the kids are told to get in a different car, and as they drive away, paparazzi chases both cars. steve hasn't noticed how famous cc really is. they live in a small, empty town.

yeah, sometimes when they're walking downtown together, people will want an autograph, but that's practically nothing. the cars park in front of a large house, and they're guided inside. make-up artists, and fashion designers steal the kids, one by one, and then steve. cc is nowhere in sight. steve hasn't worn make-up since 89', and that's because eddie wanted to put eyeliner on steve. they blend some type of powder into his face, and style his hair.

he gets handed a suit and led to a changing room. this place has to be bigger than his parents house. steve quickly changed into his suit and was led back outside into a limousine. the kids were already dressed and waiting for him. cc squeezed into the limo with the rest of them, and they took off. corroded coffin's manager went over all of the rules, and told the kids how to respond to certain questions.

once they arrive to the red carpet, they all sperate. steve stays with eddie, though. they get asked about their marriage, and who the young adults that showed up with them are. soon, the ceremony began. cc was nominated for a few categories: best group performance, best metal performance, and album of the year. ozzy ended up winning best metal performance, and metallica won best group performance. their last chance was album of the year. if they didn't win, they were still honored to be at the grammys, let alone be nominated for three categories.

when they announced that corroded coffin had won, it took eddie a bit to process it. when it finally sunk in, cc ran into stage. steve wrote eddie a speech to say just in case corroded coffin won. eddie pulled the speech out of his pocket, shook his head, and balled it up, shoving it back into his pocket.

"hi." he says, ignoring the feedback from the microphone. "wow. this is um.. this is wild. i mean, we've spent our entire lives working together in corroded coffin, and never in a thousand years, did we think we would be standing on this stage. i want to thank a lot of people, but there's one person in particular. he um.. he wrote what i was supposed to say for this, actually, but he didn't mention someone. the person who made it possible for corroded coffin to be here. himself. when we would have to stay late in the studio, he would bring us all dinner. he would stay up until i got home. and, he made sure to make time for me. this is actually his first time out of our hometown, and he demanded that he come with. steve is the most selfless person i know. he's also my favorite person. if you guys knew him, you would understand where im coming from. so, i want to dedicate this grammy to steve. i love you stevie. thank you all!" the audience shifted to cheers and applause.

eddie ran off stage, cc following behind, and steve met him with a kiss. tears were running down both of the boy's faces. maybe leaving hawkins wasn't so bad after all.

Sharing also the text of the WSJ article below.

————————-

Gwen Stefani and her husband, country singer Blake Shelton, have been partners in life and work for several years, after meeting as coaches on The Voice in 2014. Now that he’s gearing up for his final season on the NBC singing-competition show, Stefani, 53, is also thinking about what’s next.

Right now, the Grammy Award-winning singer is preparing for her New Year’s Eve performances in Las Vegas; working on her makeup line, GXVE Beauty; and gardening with Mr. Shelton. “We can come together on that, because I love flowers so much and he has so much land out there,” she said of the couple’s home in Oklahoma, where they live with her children Kingston, 16; Zuma, 14; and Apollo, 8, when they aren’t in Los Angeles. “We’ll do fields of things. We’re just sitting there waiting for it to rain.”

Here, Stefani speaks to WSJ. about her favorite holiday tradition, why she’s been skipping her morning coffee and whether fans can expect a No Doubt reunion.

What time do you get up on Mondays, and what’s the first thing you do after waking up?

I usually wake up at 7 a.m., because I have the kids. They go to school, so it’s the whole, “Come on, let’s go! Let’s brush your teeth!” Nobody likes Monday morning.

Do you have a go-to breakfast?

I’ve been doing a cleanse, so I just wake up and have water and lemon, which has been horrifying. I don’t get to have my coffee until the middle of the day.

How are your routines different on days when you’re filming The Voice?

We get up, we have our [hair and makeup], which is always my favorite. When you shoot, you’re shooting like five days, and then you’re just dead at the end. It’s very emotional too, each phase of it.

Did you read the story about your fan who was pushed onto the subway tracks and survived? She said she owed her life to climbing onstage at your concerts.

It’s Maddie [Cole]. I know her and I follow her. In fact, I just saw her, right when we left The Drew Barrymore Show. She’s come to a million of my shows, she dresses like me. I don’t follow a ton of fans, but a few years ago when I was doing the Vegas show, I started following people randomly. Then you think you know them because you see them every day. She happens to be one of them.

The fact that that happened to her, I was like, “You need to move out of the city.”

What’s been the most surprising thing about launching your makeup line?

The community. Blake and I will lay in bed and watch the tutorials of people that would take a palette and see what they would create with it.

I’ve gotten to dabble in so many different things, whether it be songwriting or designing fashion with L.A.M.B. and then Harajuku. This is different because it’s starting a business—those were licenses. I’m just not a business person. I grew up barely making it through high school. Everything I’ve done has been so much luck. With this, I feel almost like I’m smart enough to be able to do this now.

Do you sing in the shower?

Not really. I try to take shorter showers these days. I’m more of a bath person.

Do you have Blake’s Sexiest Man Alive People cover framed at home?

We don’t. That’s a good idea. You know what we do have? When we built our house last year in Oklahoma, [in] one of the bathrooms going out to the pool is every single tabloid cover, made into wallpaper. You go in there and you’re like, “Oh, my God.” It’s pretty funny.

What are the odds of a No Doubt reunion?

What are the odds of anything? I was just on The Drew Barrymore Show. She was one of my favorite celebrities when I was a little girl, and now I was just on the show with her. Anything can happen. I have no idea what’s going to happen with No Doubt. We haven’t really talked about doing anything, but it feels like everyone is, right? All the ’90s people—Blink-182 did an eight-month tour that sold out in like five minutes.

Do you and your family have any favorite holiday traditions?

Blake likes to make new traditions every year. We do this thing called a timpano dome, which is an Italian dome, it’s kind of like a lasagna within a pizza. We’ve been doing that ever since I met him. It was in a famous movie [Big Night]. You can put anything in it.

"C'mere, you" rulie

"TMZ reporting that superstar Julie Molina has ended her relationship with rugby star Nick Danforth Evans in a very public manner. Sources claim that Danforth Evans was caught..."

"Turn that crap off," Reggie called from the kitchen as he took the casserole out of the oven.

"But isn't she your favourite?" Luke asked, lowering the volume.

"Yeah, which is why I'm not celebrating her heartbreak like those vultures," Reggie replied. "I mean, good for her from getting away from that asshole, but I'm not dancing in the street because he turned out to be a cheating pig."

"You should totally send her a DM telling her to date you instead," Luke said around a mouthful of food. "You're single, she's single."

"She's a multi Grammy winning artist who could date any movie star or model she wants. Don't think she'd have much interest in a math teacher from Silver Lake," Reggie replied.

"You don't know that! You're a catch dude and after all those high profile douchebags, maybe a normal guy is what she needs," Luke argued. "Come on, we'll send her a message and the worst she does is ignore it."

And the thing about Reggie is that Luke could talk him into things super easily, so later after they had finished their food, and the dishes were clean, Reggie found himself posing for a picture that would get sent to the celebrity crush of his dreams.

@ cmonreginald: @ JulietheDahlia you deserve better than all those guys who treat you like less than the queen you are. If you ever wanna take a chance on a math nerd who shreds on the banjo, send me a note.

Of course, immediately after he let Luke hit the send button, Reggie kind of regretted it, sure that Julie would think he was some kind of creep, hitting on her right after she got dumped. Plus, who did he think he was? But as much as his finger hovered on the delete option, it never landed, and he left it, figuring it would be something he could laugh over in the future.

Only later that evening, as he was scrolling through his feed in bed, he stopped when he saw the notification of a new message light up.

@ JulietheDahlia: I'm not the best at math, but I am intrigued to hear more about this banjo shredding. How about you fill me in tomorrow night? Flying Duck at 7, see you then.

Reggie balked. There was no way that was the real Julie Molina asking him for a date. He put money on it being Luke with a dummy account trying to lift his spirits. Well if Luke wanted to carry through wit the joke and take Reggie to one of the fanciest restaurants in LA, Reggie was going to show up in style. With that in mind, he let himself sleep.

The next evening however, when Reggie showed up at the restaurant, he didn't see Luke waiting for him with a cheeky grin on his face. No, instead when he told them the reservation was under Molina, he was lead to a back table, where none other than Julie herself was waiting. Reggie sent up a silent thanks that he had worn his nicer suit as he was sat down.

"I-I didn't think it was actually going to be you," Reggie stammered. "Am I dreaming? Is this really happening?"

Julie let out a soft little giggle at that, reaching over and sliding her hand on top of his. "Feels real enough to me, but I can pinch you if you want."

"Maybe leave that for our second date," Reggie said with a smirk. "What on earth made you say yes to this? You must get thousands of sleazy messages... why me?"

"Well your message wasn't sleazy for one," Julie said, scanning her menu. "Plus you are awful cute." She looked up at him then, appreciating the flush that took over his cheeks before sighing. "Maybe I just wanted someone normal for once."

"I don't think normal is a word anyone who knows me would use as a descriptor, but okay," Reggie commented, loving how it made her smile. "So, what's good here that won't make me default on my rent?"

It was much later that the meal drew to a close when a staff member came over and whispered in Julie's ear making her face screw up. "The paps are here, right outside the door. I wish those vultures would find someone else to harass honestly. I was having a really good time too."

"You wanna sneak out and get ice cream then?" Reggie suggested. "I... kind of don't want this date to end."

"Me either," Julie admitted. "Sneaking out it is!" Thankfully the staff were helpful getting them out the back where Julie's town car was waiting, and she directed him to drive to a parlour that was hidden away in the hills.

"You know," Reggie said from where they were sitting on a lone picnic table overlooking the valley below, "When I got up this morning, this is the last place I thought I would end up. But I am so glad my roommate made me send you that message."

"Me too," Julie replied, then giggled when she looked at him. "You have ice cream on your face."

"Where?" Reggie asked, extending his tongue in an over exaggerated fashion to get it. Julie shook her head, pointing to the exact spot it was, but Reggie kept purposefully missing it.

"Oh c'mere you," Julie finally said, pulling him in, and kissing the creamy treat away, then sliding her mouth over his in a doubly delicious kiss.

Reggie was terribly glad they managed to evade the tabloids when they did, because this was one moment that he didn't want to share with anybody.

Even if his image was all over TMZ by the time their anniversary rolled around, but given Julie was under his arm with his ring on her finger in every image, Reggie found he didn't really mind.

The Not-So-Secret World of Medical Imaging Outsourcing

The Market Odyssey — From 8.48 to 12.06 Billion

So, apparently, in 2022, the global medical imaging outsourcing market was valued at a cool USD 8.48 Billion. Fast forward to 2031, and we’re looking at a whopping USD 12.06 Billion. Somebody must’ve been outsourcing crystal ball predictions. It’s growing at a CAGR of 4%, which, in simpler terms, means it’s playing the long game.

Why Outsource? Because Why Not?

Picture this: a world grappling with chronic diseases like it’s a game of hide-and-seek. And in this game, outsourcing medical imaging services becomes the superhero cape. The aging population is adding more players to the game, requiring frequent diagnostic tests. It’s like a marathon, but for medical imaging.

The Great Segmentation Game

The market is divided into segments like a giant healthcare pizza, but instead of pepperoni and mushrooms, we have services, end-users, modalities, and regions. If radiology reporting and teleradiology were toppings, they’d probably be the extra cheese because of their substantial market share. Meanwhile, diagnostic centers are the pineapple, dividing opinions but growing at an impressive rate.

Region Wars — North America Leads the Charge

North America, with its robust healthcare network and early adoption of fancy medical technologies, is leading the charge. The Asia-Pacific region is catching up, thanks to advancements, an aging population, and presumably a newfound love for diagnostic imaging services.

The Drama of Drivers and Restraints

In the grand theatre of medical imaging outsourcing, chronic diseases take the center stage, driving the demand. But, and there’s always a but, enter stringent regulatory and compliance issues, the villain of our story. They add complexity and cost, making data breaches and privacy concerns the unexpected plot twists.

The Who’s Who in the Outsourcing Realm

In the land of medical imaging outsourcing, competition is fierce. There are established brands, emerging players, and niche producers — basically, it’s a crowded party. Names like Alliance Medical, Shields MRI, and KAYI Healthcare are the cool kids, making waves in the dynamic market environment.

Trends That Make You Go “Hmm…”

Artificial intelligence is the rockstar here, getting integrated into medical image analysis like it’s the hottest concert ticket in town. It’s enhancing speed, accuracy, and probably dreaming of winning a Grammy for its contribution to patient care.

Recent Developments — Because Things Are Always Changing

In July 2023, Arterex acquired NextPhase Medical Devices, Probo Medical snagged National Ultrasound, and Bayer went shopping for Blackford Analysis. It’s like a game of mergers and acquisitions, but with medical imaging companies.

Learn to Fly

If you pushed me to name my favorite rock band, I might waver a bit before telling you, but ultimately would finally say, "Foo Fighters."

Since I'm being open about things, I would name Foo Fighters my favorite rock band mainly because of the band's lead singer, primary songwriter, and founder, Dave Grohl.

Dave Grohl is just an extraordinary human. Not only is he a great musician and songwriter, but he's also been in two bands inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: Nirvana and Foo Fighters.

He's also personal friends with Paul McCartney, has performed in front of Presidents, won Grammy's, and overcame incredible odds, tragedies, and emotional struggles. And he still finds joy and wonder in the world with great humility.

In case you're wondering, I have a man crush on Dave Grohl.

I got to see the Foo Fighters when they performed in Las Vegas in 2019, and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen and one of the great spiritual experiences I've had at a concert.

One of my favorite Foo Fighters songs is "Learn to Fly."

I love the song so much that I decided to emulate Dave Grohl and get a feather tattoo on my arm (he has one on each of his) to remind me of the lyrics from the song that really speak to me:

Now, I'm lookin' to the sky to save me/Lookin' for a sign of life/Lookin' for somethin' to help me burn out bright/And I'm lookin' for a complication/Lookin' cause I'm tired of lyin'/Make my way back home when I learn to fly high

This song was on replay for many road trips I took over the summer and has continued to find its way into my playlists. Those lyrics speak to me of faith, hope, Divine providence, life's purpose, and so much more.

Then I heard Dave Grohl talk about what the lyrics meant to him when he wrote them. In an interview, he stated, "I just always wanted to be a pilot."

I've written and read enough poetry and other stuff to know that there's always something more underneath the artist's stated reasons why they wrote a particular thing.

I suspect the same is true for Grohl and "Learn to Fly" as well. There's more to the story because there's more in the lyrics.

Even in his simple statement about just wanting to be a pilot, there is a lot that Grohl was feeling and expressing when he wrote the song.

You see, when fans like me sing along with "Learn to Fly," we are undoubtedly filled with our sense of how the words land on us, the images they conjure in our imagination, and our unique longing for more.

Because in the end, every one of us longs to fly, to trip the light fantastic, soar high above the brokenness of our lives, and maybe even touch the face of God.

Scripture and other holy texts created by inspired people to express their divinely imprinted longings work this way, too. The words land on us where we are and call us to imagine something more.

Despite how or when they were written, those words have the power to inspire us, fill us with dreams, and keep us wanting to learn to fly if we are willing to let them.

The 13th-century poet Rumi put it like this:

God has created your wings not to be dormant as long as you are alive you must try more and more to lift your wings to show you're alive.

May you lift your wings today and every day, inspired by the words you read and hear from saints of yesteryear and poets of today. May you learn to fly in your faith and in your life.

And may the grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you now and forever. Amen.

trigger warning for drugs, overdose and death!!

CHARACTER INSPIRATIONS: Sebastian Danzig (Palaye Royale), Nikki Sixx (Motley Crue), Damon Salvatore (The Vampire Diaries), Patrick Verona (10 Things I Hate About You), John Bender (The Breakfast Club), plus a bunch of other shitty rockstars

BIOGRAPHY.

Elijah Parker is the firstborn of the Faust family, the eldest of three. Basically grew up trying to protect his mother and his younger brothers from their abusive father, which is a strong part of his personality to this day. Still a kid, he assumed the role of “man of the house” when his parents divorced and the family moved to California. Elijah had to take on responsibilities very early on to help his mom out in any way he could and also served as a father figure to his younger brothers whenever she was away at work, especially once they settled down in Roswell and she was constantly gone trying to make that place a home for the kids.

As a teenager, he discovered his love for the guitar, which served as his refuge when things would get tough. They didn’t have a lot of money at the time so he started working odd jobs around the neighborhood where they lived until he had just about enough to buy his first hand-me-down guitar.

It was during his teenage years that he also began to hang out with the wrong crowd and that’s when he was introduced to the world of drugs. Elijah was introduced to heroin when he was barely seventeen and by the following year, he was already hooked. He found another way to escape reality, a way that also helped him forget his childhood traumas, and he fell madly in love with that feeling.

His addiction would last until Graveyard was formed and even after they moved to Los Angeles in order to pursue their dreams. As they didn’t even have the money to properly feed themselves, he wasn’t able to sustain his addiction. The first year away from home was the worst one of his life, not only because of the problems they faced as a band, but also for having to suffer through withdraws all by himself since his brothers weren’t aware of the situation — and he felt too guilty sharing it with them since he was supposed to be the big brother and care for them, not the other way around.

Elijah can barely even remember the whole meeting with the mysterious businessman, only has actual recollections of the damned show that happened afterwards. And the screams of the young people who ended up dying there that night. And the call that came in the morning after with a record deal that was way too good to be true.

The following years were a total blur for Elijah. As the band’s popularity grew, so did his addiction. He tried to go to rehab countless times but his craving for heroin always came back stronger than before. The band eventually found out and his brothers tried their best to help but Elijah always ended up falling into temptation. That was until Graveyard’s performance at the 2019 Grammys happened. It was the most important moment in their career — they were presented an award for best rock band and were to perform later in the evening. But Elijah doesn’t actually remember much about that night, only remembers feeling so bad that he could barely stand on his own. He felt like he was dying and for a moment, he wished he actually were. Their manager was completely furious and with good reason since that was their most important moment up to date.

So, going against Elijah’s brothers, he did what he had to do in order to get the guitarist to play. The band’s manager then injected more heroin into his veins and was able to get him on stage. Later on, while they were “enjoying” the Grammys’ after party, Elijah overdosed and died. Well, he died for a few minutes. Their manager panicked, he couldn’t allow the guitarist of the most famous rock band of the moment to die on his watch, so he asked the paramedics to inject adrenaline directly into Elijah’s heart. Three needles later, he came back.

The media never found out, his manager was simply too good at hiding certain things. Elijah was submitted to rehab one more time and decided to actually try to make it stick that time, even if the urge to escape is overwhelming sometimes. The timing couldn’t have been worse since the drama between his brother and their bassist happened only months later, with his brother booking a ticket back to Roswell and leaving them as they worked on their fifth album, and a former “girlfriend” knocked on his door with a baby in her arms claiming it was his daughter.

Despite all of that, Elijah was able to stay sober and has been for over a year now. He was forced to follow Cyrus back to Roswell and has been living in a comfortable apartment in Aurora Apartments with his daughter and his baby mama as they co-parent and try to figure their shit out. He also sometimes work as a DJ at Area 51 but it’s super casual since his main focus is still the band and his daughter.

Lucky Kentucky ch. 1

Chapter 2

Hello there, this is my new Rockstar!Bucky x Reader fic. It was heavily inspired by my love of seventies mega rockstars, Almost Famous, Classic Rock, and a little bit of personal whimsy. I hope you enjoy, and read responsibly.

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : cussing, sexy times, drugs, booze, smoking, objectification, fornication, liberation, and a litany of other sordid topics and traumas.

Your name didn’t matter, at least not so far as you could tell. They called you Kentucky, sometimes if they felt cheeky, Bluegrass. You liked it, the first band that gave you that name was some shitty college band out of Detroit. They were convinced they were gonna be the next Led Zepplin. They called it quits three years later, a good old fashioned Rock n’ Roll suicide, booze, women, and drugs. The finer things always gets the best amateurs. However, their lead singer had a way with words, he came up with the nickname. He also wrote a beautiful song about a girl named Kentucky, who he just couldn’t swing, some big named country superstar sang the song and the last you’d heard he had been writing for the best of the best since. This earned you your title, Lucky Kentucky. A bit on the nose for your taste, but it made perfect sense. You kept following the music, you went to a band in L.A., the day you left, they signed a record deal with Sony. The next was a little English girl and her backing band, her first tour of England with you landed her a tour of the US faster than they could say ‘Burbon.’

You are what is known in the music business as a road manager, so far as you could tell, this was the job you were born to do. You made schedules, you supplied booze and other artifacts, you got hotels, paid off paparazzi, packed busses, and shoved half out of their mind rock stars on to stages in more countries than you could count, you couldn’t imagine any better life. You were the best of the best, you were who the record company called when everyone else had given up. You were a fixer, and an incredibly talented one at that. You had a gift for taking a mediocre side show band, and turning them into headliners.

So when you got the call from Tony and Pepper that you had to fix The Howling Comandos, you were shocked. They were big time, nothing like your usual fixer upper opener that you could make insta stars. They certainly weren’t your crowd, but you always had a problem saying no to Pepper, Tony’s company manager. Tony was a talented mixer, and a gifted album technician. So when he started his own label, it blew up pretty quickly. The comandos were the first band he signed. They had won Album of the Year their first Grammy season without even batting an eyelash. So once business started booming, Pepper took over the paper work, and Tony did what he did best, Fucking around with a mixing board. You had met them when you started working with Natasha and the Widows, a Blondie style punk outfit. They had a pension for eating men alive. Eventually, it got in the way of their success, so you stepped in and saved the band from total destruction. You and the starks had been thick as theives since.

“Tony, you mean to tell me, that the Commandos, the biggest artists of the decade, need my help?” You scoffed down the line, checking the Widows out of the last hotel of their tour with Greta Van Fleet.

“Yes Bluegrass, I do. Barnes is going through some existential heart break shit ‘cause ole bitch called of the wedding, and fucked the Guitarist of their opener. He’s been all drugs, booze, and sappy shit since, and someone’s gotta get the mother fucker back on stage. I’m Loosing money here Kentucky, something’s gotta give.” Tony sounded livid, there were very few times where Tony was as frazzled as this, so you knew it was serious.

“Alright, but I have conditions.” You sighed, you thought you could hear the sound of Pepper weeping tears of joy, but you couldn’t be sure. “I want the Widows to open, I’m not done with them yet Stark they’ve got some potential that still needs to be tapped. I want Frankie on security, I want Wanda for wardrobe and makeup, I want Vision for my techie, and I’m taking Peter as my Head roadie.” It was a big ask, but if you were doing this, you were gonna need the best possible team.

“Jeez woman, rob the treasure chest would yah? You want all of them? You just asked me for the entire roster. They’re on other tours! I can’t just- HEY! Woman don’t you-“ you heard a slap and an ow, and suddenly you were with the one and only Pepper Potts- Stark.

“Kentucky? You have a deal. You can have the Allstars in three months, everyone’s tours should be wrapping up, that puts you just in time for festival season. You up to it?” Pepper sounded like someone had just kicked her puppy. So you knew, you were the only one that could save the day.

“Virginia? Count me in. Give me the three months to plan and connect with the team and I’ll make sure James Barnes makes it onto that bus.” You could practically taste her relief through the receiver. What had you just signed up for.

————————————————————————

You’d done it. Six months, 7 bus rentals, 75 hotels, 107 plane rides, 20 festivals, 95 shows, 89 cities, and roughly 200 people later, you had managed to construct the American leg of one of the biggest and longest tours you had ever seen. All it took was two months, and 23 bottles of Jack Daniels, and you had done it. Now all you had to do was meet the band, and have your first tour meeting.

You had never been so nervous to meet a group of men in your life. Normally, these meetings we’re pretty laid back and informal. Lots of getting to know you, and goofing off. This time, you were in charge of a multi-million dollar tour that could make or break the band of the decades d ruin your career. No pressure. Needless to say, you were fairly nervous.

You were relieved upon arrival that the first people to make it in were the people who seemed to be the most reliable. Vision and Wanda were quietly whispering to eachother in the corner as always, their hands gently intertwined as they surveyed the rest of their new subjects. Frankie was standing off in another corner looking like an immovable brick wall. His sunglasses firmly in place on his nose, looking scary as always. Peter was off with the widows flirting with their drummer. You didn’t think it would end well, seeing as MJ was a bit of a hot head, and Peter was akward and nerdy, but to your surprise, they seemed to be getting along swimmingly. Natasha and Carol were staring at a book full of something, if you had to guess, it would be song lyrics of some variety, and to your shock and absolute awe, Peggy had saddled up to Steve Rogers. Steve was the guitarist of the Commandos, and he seemed to be thoroughly enjoying her company. Tony and Pepper were chatting with Clint and Sam the drummer and bassist of the Commandos, and Bruce Banner, your newly appointed second hand. James Barnes was nowhere to be seen.

“Well, well, good to see that most of you have arrived early!” You smirked walking to the head of the table with your big box of tour folders, Peter moving instantly to help you. “If I have not yet made your acquaintance, I am Kentucky, just Kentucky, you may call me Bluegrass or Lucky, but I will always prefer Kentucky. It has come to my immediate attention, that you sorry suckers were in need of a fantastic road manager, and here I am.” You survey the room as you spoke taking into account every face that you could see in the room and making sure everyone was following. “Now, where is James?”

————Some unnamed bar across town ————

Bucky’s head pounded. Wether it was from the booze or the pounding music he had no clue, but he could tell that it was far too early to be in this booth.

“You really went for it last night Barnes,” Bucky looks for the source of the voice to find that, Luke Cage, owner of the best bar in LA, was unloading boxes of tequila into his storage cabinets under the bar. “You shouldn’t have either, you’re late for your tour meeting.”

Bucky absorbed the information, and felt it melt out of his brain as if it were nothing more than an irritating ear worm. “How do you know about that?” He sighed running a hand down his face and slowly standing to grab his leather jacket.

“It’s sharpied onto your arm,” Luke chuckled pointing to Bucky’s right arm in just about the only clean space someone could fine. “Steve came in and did it last night before giving about a hundred dollars to let you sleep it off in that booth.”

“Of course he did,” Bucky scoffed, “the punk never knew when to leave well enough alone.” Bucky quickly slipped his sunglasses over his aching eyes, as he watched Luke slide a cup of coffee across the bar. “Goodbye Luke, your bar is the only thing I’m gonna miss about this town.”

“Goodbye Bucky, the free live music, and the fantastic tips are all I’m going to miss about you boys. I’ll tell Jess you said hello.” And with that final fond farewell, Bucky left Luke’s bar for the last time before he was trapped in a tour bus for six months.

The drive to Stark Records was as second nature to him as tying his shoes. He easily glided in between cars, making record time to his place of employment. He parked his bike next to a slot that occupied the sweetest little red corvette he’s seen in a good while. The tune in the reference catches his brain and he starts to whistle the chorus, wishing the artist formerly known as Prince was still around. He walked past Sharon, the desk clerk, giving her his customary wink and a smirk, stealing a sucker out of her candy dish and wandering into the meeting.

That’s when he saw her, the hottest piece of ass this side of the sunset strip. She looked powerful, she looked commanding, she was covered in tattoos and wearing the best looking little black number. She was saying his name. “Where is James?”

“Right here sweet thing, I hope I’m not too late to the party, I’d hate to miss anything that came out of that pretty little mouth.” Boy was it pretty, the full lips covered in a red shade that he could only seem to imagine smeared all over her moth as she panted his name.

“Ah, yes there he is. Hello, James. Just in time to-”

“James is my dad sugar, I’m sure we can think of something a little more clever for you to-”

“Alright then Junior if you don’t mind, I’m trying to conduct a meeting, and I will not be letting a drunken moron interupt my carefully planned work flow.”

Bucky’s jaw snapped shut as the people around him, some friends and some strangers, laughed at the clever lady’s little barb.

“Alright then, as I was saying, I’m here to help. I believe in the Peter Grant method of representation. The you-have-a-venue-you-want-it-filled-I-have-just-the-band-sixty-forty method.” She said, flipping her hair into a simple bun on the top of her head, which Bucky couldn’t find more attractive if he tried, “I have made hotel arrangements for every show, I have made bus arrangements, I have planned for added shows, and delayed dates. I have brought you the best opener I have, the best artists, roadies, security, and technicians I could scrape together, and most importantly, I have given you my time and my trust. I can make your touring life as easy and as simple as humanly possible, or I could ruin it. However, all I want is to get you out there, grinding again, reminding your fans the reason they love you. All you have to do, is let me work, and focus on the music. Can we do that?”

“Doll? I like the way you think.”

“Junior? It’s gonna be a long fucking six months.”

I’ve been going through entys blinds the last 2 hours. I’ve seen some Selena/Justin/Hailey ones and I’ll tell you about them. One of them is how Justin would make Selena sleep with the people he would tell her to or else he’ll make her feel bad and tell her she’ll go to hell. Supposedly he would drug her to do it too. He slept with Barbara Palvin. He would have sex with Hailey but then go back to Selena right after. He constantly cheated on Selena and would make her feel bad and horrible about herself if she didn’t come back. He used her for promo during the purpose era. Remeber that hangout at the Carl’s Ritz Hotel they were both seen at together? He blocked her number right after they went theyre separate ways. He had multiple hookups with women at concerts/hotel room. He does Meth. He supposedly has a secret child. He’s loosing hair and taking vitamins for it and he’s using that as an excuse for hailey not to get pregnant.

Another one is how Selena didn’t have the money to pay for drugs on a holiday she went with Justin and she charged the bill over to scooter. She still continued drinking after her kidney transplant. She called her 3 besties leeches and that’s why they ditched her to hang put with Hailey a couple years ago. She’s had 2 threesomes and none of them included Justin. She was going to go out on a date with Zayn but Rita Ora ended up sleeeping with him the same day and send her a photo of themselves on the bed to her. Back in 2016 when she went to the Grammys with Taylor, Taylor made sure Selena wasn’t bringing any coke with her and checked her purse and her assistants purse as well. She sleep with Niall. James Franco hit on her and wanted to hook up with her but she ignored him so he hit on someone else who agreed to hook up with him.

Hailey would sleep with Carl Lentz and he would give her money for it. She slept with a producer so she could go to the Golden Globes After Party a few years ago. She’s done drugs and did coke at her wedding. She’s talked crap about Selena constantly and has made fun of her weight. She orally serviced another producer to land the hosting job with Drop The Mic. She made Justin not sign the prenup and had him pay her fathers bills he owed.

Apparently forcing your significant other to fuck a friend is a common thing in LA. Allegedly Someone overheard Scott Disick yelling Sofia Richie at a Beverly Hills restaurant because she wouldn’t fuck his friend.

La La(chimolala) Land Chapter Five: City of Stars

jimin x reader genre: fluff, fluff, and more fluff word count: 1k warnings: none

[Inspired by La La Land]

Read on Wattpad

Read on Ao3

He had to clear his head. It was as simple as that. He’d convince the managers to let him go off on his own, and he’d catch a cab down to the beach. It would be just like Busan—just like home.

Except it wasn’t like home. Not at all. It was hot as blue blazes, and there were people everywhere. He spent a few hours sitting on a bench—just people watching, sipping a raspberry lemonade, and trying to get the stench of weed out of his nose. Feeling dissatisfied, he jumped in another cab and asked to be taken to a beach with less people.

When Jimin reached the Hermosa Beach Pier, the sun was beginning to dip behind the horizon, burying its face in the purple Pacific and scattering its glory across a darkening sky. He felt a light evening breeze travel across the back of his neck. There were significantly less people around, so he began to stroll down the pier.

I wonder what she thinks of me now, he wondered. I thought too much. I panicked.

And I wonder what she thought of me before.

Trying his best to push these recurring thoughts out of his mind, Jimin shoved his hands in his pockets and leisurely whistled a tune.

His eyes wandered, absorbing the stunning view, until they settled on an elderly couple across the way. They were slow dancing—actually slow dancing. He could hardly believe it. It certainly wasn’t what you expected to see on a pier, but they looked so happy. People in LA . . . half of them cared endlessly about what other people thought of them. And the other half . . . the other half didn’t care at all.

Maybe I should be more like the other half.

His eyes scanned the horizon meticulously, worries and excitement traveling between his head and toes as if through a two-lane highway. His mind wandered along with the tune he’d been humming . . .

Who knows . . .

Is this the start of something wonderful in me?

Or one more dream . . . that I cannot make true.

The coffee shop feels . . . different today. Depressing. As far as part-time jobs go, it’s usually not that bad. Sure, you have to serve countless stick-thin bombshells who act like they never left their sorority houses—but that comes with the territory of any part-time job in LA.

Today, your mind revolves around one thing. It spins through countless questions—but all deal in some manner with a certain something.

And just when you start to get your bearings, that something walks right through the door, dressed in a cream-colored button down and slacks.

“How did you find me?”

He doesn’t smile. “Do you . . . are you on break soon?”

You glance at the clock. “Coincidentally, I am. Starting now.” You untie your apron.

“Let’s go for a walk.”

_________________________

Downtown Santa Monica is practically baking under the sun’s rays—a Southern California summer is surely on its way—but Jimin seems to be bothered by something else. He hangs his head a bit, eyes never leaving the sidewalk in front of him.

“Are you ever gonna tell me how you found out where I work?” You press him a little. I have the right to be more than a little ticked at him. Pushing me away like that, and then showing up out of the blue?

Blue. That blue sky . . . that blue suit on him . . .

“Yoongi stalked you on Facebook,” he answers. “It’s creepy, I know. It’s one of his secret favorite pastimes.”

“Stalking people on Facebook? That is creepy. Though I have to say, I’m flattered that a member of a boy band stalked me on Facebook.”

Jimin inhales sharply and pulls you aside, under the awning of a Persian ice cream shop. He looks briefly to his left, then his right, then turns to face you. “Y/N, that’s . . . I need to tell you something.”

His hand rests on your shoulder, and you watch him intently as he forces himself to look you in the eye. “What is it, Jimin?”

He sighs, dropping his gaze back to the pavement. “When I joined BigHit as a trainee, I thought I knew what I was getting into. I pretty much always knew I’d go into entertainment—I went to an Arts high school, and I liked performing more than anything else. But . . .”

A long pause ensues. Jimin’s eyebrows knit in frustration, his arms flex and cross in front of him, and tension ripples across his jawline. You can tell he's suffering. Stressed. Angry. Confused. And . . . something about seeing him this way emboldens you.

You reach out your hand and rest it gently on his forearm. You can tell that he’s surprised by the sudden physical contact, because he jumps a little and the muscles under his shirt grow tense. But he certainly isn’t appalled by your touch. In fact, it forces a smile onto his lips for the first time that day.

“But . . .” you encourage him to continue.

“But I had no idea how . . . how much it would be. Don’t get me wrong, I am so grateful to have met the guys. We’re more than best friends—we’re like brothers. I hope you saw that during the shoot the other day. If I had been placed with any other group, I would’ve dropped out as soon as my first contract ended. I’ve relied heavily on their strength and support, and for years now they’ve continually boosted me up when I’m down.

“But I’m exhausted, Y/N. It’s so much to handle, constantly. Interviews. Workouts. Travel. New songs to learn, new dances to master. And still I love it—even though it exhausts me. But . . .” his tension levels rise again. “Sometimes, I wish I could live a normal life. I’ll admit, I love the attention, but . . .

“I had no clue how famous we’d become.”

Now your head is spinning. Famous? I mean, they’re a boy band. I’ve seen them dance. I’m sure they’ve got a following, a few devoted fangirls.

Out of the corner of your eye, you notice a cyclist stop in the middle of the bike lane and whip out his smartphone—to take a picture of you. The ice cream shop owner standing behind you follows suit, snapping photos through the glass. Behind you, a twenty-something in a sundress drops her lavender ice cream onto the sidewalk, grabs her friend’s sleeve, points at you, and shouts: “Oh my god, Lauren, look! It’s Jimin from BTS!”

Wait a second . . . BTS? Like, ‘performed at the Grammys’ BTS?

The girls start jumping and screaming. “Oh my god, Tiff, you’re right! AND HE’S ON A DATE!”

What? You look down at your hand that's still resting on Jimin’s forearm. Oh, no . . .

A swarm of window shoppers and tourists begin to amass. A few people even pull over in their cars to snap pictures of you.

“Y/N,” Jimin leans down and whispers in your ear. “Run.”
